ShangLuda Admirable film.
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
neilkelly101 Superb show always high on laugh factor. Can't fault the team captains either David Mitchell and the always on-point Lee Mack. Without doubt one of the greatest shows ever devised.
Dave In this panel game, the players take turns in saying something amusing about themselves, then the others try to work out whether it's true or is a lie. It doesn't work most of the time. That's because most of the lies are either obviously untrue - or are so trivial that it doesn't matter.The episodes vary a lot in entertainment value, depending who is taking part during that one - but most episodes are awful.Some of the most common participants aren't good on this show, despite being good elsewhere. David Mitchell is very good in scripted comedy such as Peep Show and the sketch shows that he did with Robert Webb - but as himself, his formal and intellectual style is uncomfortably incongruous for this light-hearted format.
ReganRebecca I'm not big on panel shows, but Would I Lie to You? easily transcends its form and is one of my favourite shows period. Featuring a host (currently Rob Brydon, but previously Angus Deayton, for the first two series), and two comedians serving as team captains (David Mitchell playing up his high-brow nerdiness while Lee Mack serves as his foil), the show is genuinely funny with a fairly simple premise. Contestants read a bizarre story off a card and the opposing team is able to question them for a brief period before they must guess whether they are telling the truth or lying. It's a great format that has introduced me to the best of British comedic talent (Sarah Millican, Miranda Hart, and Rhod Gilbert are some of my fave guest stars) and every episode gives me at least a couple of real laughs.
Jackson Booth-Millard Comedy panel shows seem to be the same similar setup, most like 8 Out of 10 Cats, Have I Got New for You and Mock the Week focus only on recent events and stuff, this one doesn't. Hosted by Rob Brydon (originally Angus Deayton in the first two series), with team captains David Mitchell and Lee Mack, this show takes the concept of lying and telling the truth, and makes it into a game of telling what is fact and what is fiction. Rounds include a statement by one of the panellists and the other team identifying its reality, a celebrity statement and deciding what the reality is in that, identifying which person genuinely knows a mystery guest brought into the studio, and the final quick-fire round of quick statements and identifying their reality, including possessions. Guests have included Duncan Bannatyne, Frankie Boyle, Natalie Cassidy, Dom Joly, John Barrowman, Patrick 'Paddy' McGuinness, Fay Ripley, Dominic Wood, Jimmy Carr, Eamonn Holmes, Ulrika Jonsson, Dara O'Briain, Leslie Ash, Myleene Klass, Jason Manford, Neil Morrissey, Len Goodman, Russell Howard, Vic Reeves, Wendy Richard, Harry Enfield, Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, Dave Spikey, Claudia Winkleman, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Gabby Logan, Robert Webb, Trisha Goddard, Rich Hall, Ben Shephard, David Baddiel, Maureen Lipman, Richard Wilson, Michael Aspel, Davina McCall, Olivia Colman, Hugh Dennis, Peter Serafinowicz, Danny Baker, Michael Buerk, Anton Du Beke, Shane Richie, Rhys Thomas, Phil Daniels, Lauren Laverne, Michael McIntyre, Jo Brand, Larry Lamb, Carol Vorderman, Fern Britton, Reginald D.
